    08/28/2026 - Today's Special Menu by the entrance
    Teri C.

    As long time fans of the original Ichiza, I felt it was time to revisit Ichiza 2 Hanare since my original visit was so long ago. (The original Ichiza is celebrating its 25th anniversary currently with a few specials!) They consider their establishment to have a "private dining room" esthetic and this is very much so. All rooms are partitioned off, so you definitely feel it's more private. They also have hangers for your coats, which just reminds of izakayas in Japan. The Husband and I enjoyed these items: * Negi Hama Handroll $6.50/each * Salmon Skin Handroll $3.95/each * Ponzu Marinated Mackerel $7.50 * Garlic Chicken Gizzard $10.25 * Cold Tofu $3.95 Add Crunchy Chili Oil $1.50 * Squid Somen with Mentaiko $3.95 * Homemade Simmered Pork Belly $3.95 * Salmon Skin Chazuke $9.50 * Hamachi Tempura with Ume Shiso $9.25 * Brown Sugar Pudding $6.50 We enjoyed everything as usual, and everything came out in a timely manner. Despite it being an izakaya, we don't normally enjoy any alcohol. But their drink menu sounded really interesting and we may need to revisit it on our next visit. We were wondering why we haven't been back here before since we really enjoyed our meal. The only thing was that we missed the daily specials board that was located by the front, and only saw it on the way out. We definitely would have added a few more items to our dinner if we had seen it earlier. Despite there being a service bell to press when we needed assistance, the waitress came by often to check on us. They also offer a loyalty rewards program. We would have earned so much if they offered this 15 years ago! Since we just signed up, we got a free dessert. Overall, we are loving Ichiza 2 Hanare and will be back!

    As soon as you step into Ichiza 2 Hanare, it feels like you've been transported to an authentic izakaya in Japan. A feature that was neat was that nearly every party is seated in its own private room, with only a handful of bar seats available in front of the cooks. The rooms made the experience more intimate, yet the service never suffered. The staff checked on us regularly, and each room had a service bell if we needed anything, so help was always just a button away. Then there's the food. The menu seems endless, with an incredible variety of small plates to choose from. I especially loved that much of the menu is designed for sharing, making it easy to sample a wide range of dishes without spending a fortune or getting overly full. Their $3.95 section is a fantastic value and encourages you to try items you might not normally order. Some of my favorites were the Pork Belly (Kakuni), the Fried Chicken (Tatsuta-age), the Meatballs (Tsukune), and the simple but satisfying Honey Toast for dessert. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to Las Vegas so I can work my way through even more of their menu.

    This place is so cute! I absolutely love the private room concept and it gives your group its own space and privacy during dinner. It feels so Japanese! I've been to Japan many times, and whenever I can, I always reserve a private room. At Ichiza, you don't even need a reservation to get one, which was such a nice surprise. The restaurant's decor, from the walls to the overall atmosphere, feels like an authentic Japanese izakaya. I honestly felt like I was back in Japan! I really wish we had something like this in the Bay Area. The service was excellent. There's a call button at each table if you need anything, so you never feel like you're waiting too long. Even without pressing it, the staff checked on us often and were very attentive. We ordered so many dishes, and everything was amazing! The yakitori meatballs were incredibly juicy and flavorful. The ume shiso yellowtail tempura was one of my favorites--the combination of the plum and shiso made it so refreshing. The Okinawa soda was my favorite drink of the night. We also ordered the hamachi jalapeño, which was delicious. The vinegar sauce was perfectly balanced. The ika mentaiko tempura was excellent too, and the squid was so tender. Honestly, everything we ordered was delicious. There were so many dishes that I can't even list them all! We'll definitely be back. Every time we visit Las Vegas, Ichiza will be one of the first places on our list! P.S. Their restrooms were also very clean, which I always appreciate!

    Ichiza has lots of small plates to choose from. The sushi is always really good paired with soju or sake, none are bad combos. I also love the bbq mushroom. The honey toast is my favorite but I'm sad I forgot to take a photo. Staff are friendly and check on us often. Each seating is like a private room and reminds me of Japan. It's a little authentic spot where you can appreciate the sushi despite not having an ocean here...

    Love this place for intimate private rooms, numerous drink options, and fresh sashimi. Everything I've tried has been delicious, including: fresh sashimi with house made soy sauce, miso marinated salmon, gizzard, beef tongue stew, fried foods, & yakitori. They're also open late night with a late night happy hour starting at 9 PM.

    This place is a gem! Can't believe it took me this long to try this place. Some memorable items are the miso code, daikon salad, squid with mentaiko, yakionigiri, and takoyaki. The interior is very vibey, and feels like you're in a legit Japanese yakitori/izakaya restaurant. The rooms are pretty private, and the decor is really cool! There's a bunch of menu items on the wall, and lots of fun drinks you can try. I got the Sansho Pepper highball, and I won't be getting that one again - the pepper taste was very light, and I like my highballs a lil more flavorful. I am looking forward to coming back here and trying their sushi items!

    The inside of the restaurant is nicely decorated and is great to go to with a group of friends or even small groups. Ordering is pretty simple and the menu is pasted everywhere with pictures that make it clear what you are going to get. The food was delicious! Our server was nice and attentive.

    I loved the privacy of the booths/tables here. I came with a friend and we loved the food that we ordered. My favorite was the pork+onion. The service was fantastic, with the servers came when we needed them.

    If you want a taste of Japan in Vegas...My pictures don't do this place justice for how it transforms you, making you feel like you stepped right into a restaurant in Tokyo. It has so much character. The dining room is han-koshitsu style, where everyone is in a semi-private booth. The food is amazing with a wide range that will satisfy anyone. The drinks are also very good and rooted in Japanese flavors. Both the food and drinks arrived in a very timely manner. I would recommend making a reservation, as the wait on a Saturday was an hour plus.

    Great late night spot for some Japanese bar food and drinks, down to the Jim Beam drinks so the Happy Hour is a crowd pleaser. The miso caramel vanilla ice cream is a must try! There are larger options for food but we only went here for dessert and drinks after dinner but from the looks of that menu I might have eaten a second dinner! The service was also great, our table cleared and drinks replaced constantly so it was never empty and you'd want to stay for longer.

    Eel Kakiage tempura roll
    mich l.

    A better experience last night, our lady waitstaff was the best !!! She took our orders right away and food came on time and was prepared fresh !!! I ordered the eel kakiage tempura roll and I liked it. And our usual the Agadashi tofu and gyoza of course were good. The grilled salmon belly tasted good not salty but a little fatty for my liking. And I love the pudding and the chocolate cakes. And the best taste for the night was my Okinawa soda drink ( a taste of Tokyo heaven!) I didn't know that a waitstaff can make or break you and I'm glad it was a better experience.

    Having lived in Japan for 12 years and then coming back to the States, that hard craving for authentic Japanese food is real--and honestly, it's wild how difficult it is to find a restaurant that truly hits the spot. We've tried so many places, and Ichiza Hanare is one of the few that really stands out. First off the ambiance really just takes me back and really feels like I'm back in Japan. From the second you step in the door, "Iraishamasen" greeting to the layout of the restaurant and the smell, it really has you feeling like you're there! The food is amazing- All so rich in flavor, great quality and presentation is just wow! It's truly an experience eating here and I 100% recommend coming here at least 1 time to enjoy the experience!

    Apple S.

    I wanted to check this place out mainly for the atmosphere, and it did not disappoint. You get your own little wooden room, giving you a cozy, authentic feel--almost like being in Japan. They thoughtfully provide areas for your shoes, bags, and coat hangers, which adds to the experience. From the moment we walked in, the service was amazing--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The menu has a great variety if you're open to trying different things. My husband and I had been hopping around Chinatown and stopped in for a bit, and we were blown away by the attention and care in every detail. One standout: probably the best soy sauce in the valley--rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Overall, this is easily one of the best Izakaya-style restaurants we've visited, and we can't wait to go back soon.

There's always a wait, because the place is tiny but the wait never seems too long and it is worth it. My favorite is the miso ramen with a side of the eggs. Their eggs are a must have.

Every since Menya Musashi closed down, we had to visit Jinya every so often. Ramen boys' Tsukemen sucked, but think their Tonkotsu was decent from what I remember last? This place is one of my cousin's favorite local ramen place. If it's as consistent, then definitely can become a favorite here! But Vegas is full of false hope. Consistency is considered a difficult expectation even for chain food places in Vegas, typical. We'll see. We visited on Labor Day Monday around 930pm. No line with only 1 single diner and us there. It wasn't until maybe 10pm when more visitors started popping in. The place looks great for individual eaters too. I'm not sure it's as spectacular to wait in a line? $14.50 Deluxe Tonkotsu. This and the classic are popular choices. But I was eyeing the Kuro Black Garlic. Do deluxe was an easy choice cause it has the black garlic in it. - Add extra noodles for $2.50 (which I did to-go with my leftover Tsukemen broth also taken to-go). They can offer thin noodles or udonish but not the Tsukemen special one. - This ramen was mild spicy which took me by surprise. In case anyone can't do any spicy due to dietary, medical etc, then I'm sure they can take it out? Noodle texture was great! Broth was decent and more simple. $15.95 Tsukemen. Usually a fav of mine but very difficult to find a place I like? Only the OG original Sliverlake Ramen did it for me. Noodles were on point!! Broth was decent. However, looks like missing corn or maybe other eaters like to add corn to theirs? And the meat pieces were pretty tiny or scrappy in my broth. I was expecting a bit larger pieces than 2, and slot more scrappy pieces. Only the Deluxe Miso Ramen has diary in its ramen. All the other ramens have are dairy free! Was looking into the small bowls like the salmon egg/mini mentaiko bowl $6.25 but was told by staff that it's alot of rice and small amount of eggs. So it was a no for me. $5.50 Sapporo Draft. $3.95 Sapporo light via bottle. Next time looking to also try their shoyu style, and black graphic ramen.

But honestly, sometimes that makes you think, "Okay... if it looks like this, the food MUST be bomb." And thankfully, it was! When we first walked in, we checked ourselves in through the Yelp waitlist, but nobody greeted us or explained what to do. As first-timers, that was a little off-putting because we weren't even sure if we had checked in correctly. Eventually we were seated, though, and once someone attended to us, everything moved pretty quickly. We ordered the spicy umami ramen, garlic edamame, and nigori sake. For our son, we ordered the veggie ramen but asked if they could make it super simple with just the noodles, broth, and corn because he is VERY picky. They were totally accommodating, which we really appreciated. Now THE RAMEN. My first bite was honestly like, "Okay, this isn't bad." But then I kept eating it...and the flavor just kept opening up. Then we took a sip of the nigori sake, went back to the ramen, and OMG. It completely changed the experience. The spice was SO GOOD. It's the kind that catches you in the back of your throat before it even hits your tongue. It might have you coughing for a second, but somehow you're coughing while immediately going back in for another bite because YOU CAN'T STOP EATING IT. The flavor just builds and builds. So good! And the biggest win? OUR SON ATE HIS RAMEN. He actually really enjoyed it, which is huge for us because now ramen officially goes on the list of foods we can all go out and eat as a family! As far as atmosphere, this isn't really a fancy date-night spot. It's more of a casual ramen joint where I'd come with family, friends, or coworkers when I just want some really good food. The only thing keeping this from five stars for me was the service experience. Not being greeted or told how the waitlist worked was confusing as a first-time customer, and there wasn't much checking back once we had our food. If that doesn't matter to you, then honestly, you're good to go because THE FOOD DELIVERS. Overall, four stars and definitely recommended. Come for the ramen, don't expect a whole meet-and-greet situation , and prepare yourself for that spicy umami because it was BOMB.

I originally ordered the Hakata Tonkatsu without the DX but they made it as a DX and brought it to me and asked me if I wanted it and would still only charge me for original one I ordered. This was very nice of them. You can choose your spiciness, but my party agreed that they are conservative with the spice. I ordered mines mild but didn't taste any spice at all (I don't like spicy.) The Chicken Paitan is limited daily and by the time we got there for dinner they only had 2 left, so we claimed one. All in all, I enjoyed my experience here.

Great, if you're dining by yourself at one of the bar seating or if you're with a group of friends, they have tables in the back and then I believe they also have outdoor seating from what it looked like. (I was there at night.) I am so grateful for our server. He really was a trooper, we were trying to figure out some of my allergies, and he really went above and beyond to doublecheck things. I got an iced Matcha, and my friend got a non-alcoholic Sapporo. And we both enjoyed our beverages. Prices were pretty reasonable and they do have happy hour and deals throughout the week. For a starter, we ordered the Marufuku bites: Pirikara Chicken. It was the perfect level of spice. The ratio of bun to vegetable to sauce, was really great and we quite enjoyed it. It was a perfect little starter snack while we were waiting for our food. I ordered the Chicken Paitan with spinach noodles and my friend ordered the Hakata Tonkotsu DX ramen. There was a mixup with my noodles and they quickly remade my Ramen with the correct noodles and I really appreciated how swift they were able to do that. From the outside, the bowl looks like it isn't holding that much when in reality when you start eating, you realize that there is a lot in there! My only complaint is that I wish there would've been more chicken. The egg was fantastic and I absolutely loved the spinach noodles. They gave a really good amount of noodles! The broth was fantastic! It was the perfect comfort food. We sat there in complete silence as we happily ate our food. I finished the bowl clean! Overall, it was really great experience and I'm excited to go there again in the future. Especially more in the winter! Sometimes parking can be a little difficult because it does get really packed in that area, so just keep that in mind, especially on weekends at night, you might need to park farther down closer to mothership.
